@Ahiku I like the drawings you did to accompany that post. They're the best XD

@Yuneyn Between the British and the American keyboard, only a couple keys are switched, but they're all punctuation. With QWERTY/AZERTY? Ugh, it's a nightmare XD But if I don't switch to Azerty when I'm typing in French, making the accents is just as awful. So I have to gross choices XD
I think I'm getting better with Azerty, though... I just have to get faster at remembering I've switched back to Qwerty after XD

@Vox: Ah, they were really quickly made. ^^°°°

Ahh, I dreamed about NezuSHi last night, but I can't remember it properly. I just know that they were in a tear-down and that Nezumi pushed Shion through a hole in the floor. D: Not very nice. **** Nezumi. >.<

Ok so I had this pretty weird/scary dream last night and since we were on the subject I thought I'd share^^ Plus it's kind of sort of related to No.6...

It's funny because I almost never remember my dreams, but when I do they're often pretty detailed. This one felt so real I made sure I took notes as soon as I realized I was home and safe^^


It was about a facility like the Correctional Facility in No.6... I think it was a pretend boarding school or something, because kids had their own rooms, not prison cells, but they were constantly under surveillance and undergoing many behavioral manipulation experiments. At some point a little guy escaped and then they'd tighten security and would shoot anyone who tried to escape. I managed to get out anyway, and as I was escaping I could hear screaming behind the facility's wall, they were actually branding homosexuals... they'd brand a train image on their cheek to punish them.
Time passed a little, and one night I took the train and saw two branded guys waiting for the same train. I guess kids from the facility could go out to do some research or something. I smiled at them, and they smiled back, but then I went to sit with friends on the train (incidentally all real friends that I may or not have lost contact with). We spoke of feminism and things like that, and then the guys climbed down and as they passed in front of me they called me by my name while saying goodbye.
I got super scared that he knew my name. Apparently my memories of my time at the facility were hazy, like it felt like a bad dream, and then I started to question whether it had been real or not, and whether these facilities would really exist and you could be forced into a behavior you can't control, be captured and never know what's real or not.
Somehow I ended up in my old room again, but no one knew I was back. During the night, I realized there were people outside the window... all the kids from the facility were wearing scrubs and acting like zombies. They were standing in 3 rows, arms outstretched and slowly turning around themselves. I was scared they'd see me so I hid under the window but caught a glimpse of some kid's eyes... it's like he was staring at me but his eyes were empty. Once the... thing was over, they would all go back inside and I knew someone was coming to check the rooms, so I tried to hide under the bed.
A woman entered and started looking around...

And then I woke up, completely freaked out, and didn't dare move for a while lol^^ Like - what the hell was that???

@Yuneyn
Woah, scary! O.O And it reminds me a bit of "fateswap".
And somehow it's more like a nightmare. >,<

Haha yeah, it did remind me of Fateswap too somehow. You story explores more the experiments done on people than the original novel... Maybe I'm Safu, at least she has a good ending in your story!!

It felt very weird anyway, you know when you wake up and don't know where you are or what's reality. This feeling creeps me out^^

Oh yes, that's a really horrible feeling! >,<

Ah, at the moment I always fall asleep when I watch TV, and when I wake up I'm always like: "Oh...wow, this animation movie looks fantastic." XD And after a while I always realize that it's not an animation but a real series. ^^°

@ Yuneyn - that sounds like a super creepy dream, but it's really interesting ^^
Um... also, what is Fateswap? I haven't heard of it before, and I'm really curious ^///^

So... I know a lot of our members live in Europe, but it's Thanksgiving here in the US.... and it's snowing. And it was snowing here on Halloween. Is it just going to snow on every holiday? XD

@this-is-our-truth fateswap is a really long fic i wrote.
you can find it on AO3 if you like! (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2061705/chapters/4481307)
the premise is that shion was taken to the correctional facility at a young age, while nezumi was raised by his family. instead of vice versa. that's why it's a fateswap!

Okay, so about that snow.
Yesterday I was going home on the train, yeah?
Well, it was snowing. That was nice. I love snow. Very pretty. Trains can usually get through snow no problem because they're 800 tonnes of steel with a snow plow attached to the front. fine, fine.
Well, a tree fell on the tracks, the train hit the tree, the snow plow popped off and we were stuck outside of Hartford for two hours ;A;
I finally got home at 1 in the morning after being on the train for 12 hours (instead of 9)!

The worst part was the train wifi was awful xD
(as you may have noticed from all my messages from yesterday XD)

Yesss you should all read Fateswap because it is pretty damn awesome!!!

OMG that snow story... Sorry you had to go through this @Vox! (Now I understand all your anger towards the wifi^^)

But yeah, trains aren't happy in the snow anyway. Once I was going skiing, left home around 8am and was supposed to arrive around 4pm but there had been too much snow and the train connections were horrible... I was with my brother and we stayed stranded in a train station for 7 hours with many angry travelers... They promised us trains every hour, so we waited for nothing every time, once they actually made us sit in a train, but then told us that it wouldn't work as the brakes were frozen so we went back into the train station... At some point they suggested we could all sleep in that broken train (that was like super uncomfortable and freezing) and wait until the morning, but that's when people got really angry. In the end they miraculously found a bus for half the people, and a very nice comfortable, heated train that worked for the other half (mine!!) and we were able to finally arrive at the resort around 1-2am... don't remember. And of course we got no financial compensation because "it's not our fault it was snowing".
One shouldn't rely on French trains to get you anywhere. (Besides when there's no meteorological issue, they're on strike^^)

Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving to all our American members!! (and the ones who also celebrate Thanksgiving, don't know if anyone is concerned, but anyway^^)

@Yuneyn awww thank you >w< *blushu*

Omg XD I love France so much <3
I'm sorry you had to go through that, though. It sound pretty bad. i've never had such a bad issue with an Amtrak train... (yes, I totally promote them. because they get me to school every semester for only 80$ and except for the shoddy wifi I usually have no complaints with them XD)

I appreciate your well wishes! Thank you! But uh... I don't really celebrate Thanksgiving... ^^;; I mean, my mother always cooks a big meal. But seeing as she's British, it means nothing to her XD She mostly just does it for my Dad's benefit. We kinda go through the motions, I guess. I mean, it's always fun, and we get to see family. But it doesn't really inspire the sense of patriotism in me that I think it's supposed to. Plus it's so commercialized... I think the part of this whole thing that I'm most looking forward to is boycotting Black Friday tomorrow XD

(In case you don't know about that: 1. Black Friday is a day when all red-blooded Americans go to department stores and buy so many things that they'll trample other people to get to them. 2.We're having a little racial war in Ferguson, Missouri right now. Because of that and because we think that Black Friday is unfair to retail workers, since they have to work on a holiday and they're often underpaid, a lot of people are boycotting Black Friday. I plan to be one of them.)

Happy Thanksgiving @American friends!

@this-is-our-truth
Oh yes, read fateswap! It’s really, really great! *-*

@Vox and Yuneyn
OMG, your train stories sound really, really horrible. O_o° Trains! But German trains are also like that. And trams. Every year when we have the first snow, you can prepare for chaos and delays, because they just don’t learn by former experiences. Summer is also great. When it’s too hot, the aircons don’t work anymore. A couple of years ago, about 40 people got a heat stroke while traveling. ^^°

@Vox, oh ok I understand then^^ I'm also not a big fan of commercialized holidays... but unfortunately I guess every holiday is commercialized nowadays...
But yes, I had heard about Black Friday without really knowing what it meant. It's like a super sale, right? And I saw many posts about Ferguson on my dash, so I can understand the boycott...

@Ahiku... omg, 40 people got a heatstroke... what the hell are those trains O_o

@Ahiku did you realise that the forum has officially promoted you to Hero Mode? Next it's gonna be God Tier And I should stop with the Homestuck jokes that nobody understands

Also I'll make a note not to ride the train in Germany in the summer XD
The one thing you can count on Amtrak for is not freezing you to death or boiling you up. Thank goodness!! ^^;;

@Yuneyn the whole Ferguson thing is such a disaster. Seriously. It's like real life No. 6 over here. There was a big protest in my city two days ago, but sadly I wasn't hope to participate. And some people don't believe that "it's a race issue." UGH IT MAKES ME SO MAD sorry I'll try and stop talking about it =.=

I still love Christmas, even though it's super commercialized. But Thanksgiving, though. One of the biggest events is the "Macy's day parade" which is named after a bloody department store and then the day after you're supposed to go on a shopping free for all "to celebrate." Yeah right. =.=
Yeah, Black Friday's a super sale. And I wasn't kidding about people being trampled.

@Vox
Oh o.o No, I didn’t realize it yet. YAY, I’m a hero! Wuhahaha!

But I don’t feel like one. XD Somehow I managed to catch a cold last night and today is my last day of vacation. Q___Q Nooooo~  But I have early shift next week…at least. X_x° God, I don’t want to go there. Ahaha…I got a letter via courier two days ago… I thought they’re going to fire me, but it was an invitation to their annual Christmas celebration party. Really, wtf!? Do you really need to send something like that via courier? I can’t go there anyway, I have a late shift from 13.00-21.30 that day… <,< If they wanted to annoy me, they did it quite well.

Ahhh, actually, I wanna draw something for next week today, since it's the last day I have a lot of time.  (For my first blog anniversary. XD But in the end, there's nobody who knows that, so I guess I don’t really need to do something… I should stop feeling obligated to do something like that… XDDD But well, it’s on Tuesday… maybe I feel like doing something after work then…) I guess I’ll just rest today and enjoy my last day of vacation with a sore throat and headache X’D.  Yay!
